Because thats who Scylla is. Check her Children's box skin its relatively cheerful. But overall HiRez does not need and should not pander to a specific audience like lolis just because you think we "need" it. You do, not us

^ This.

Although I'd love to see lolis that don't look like teenagers (jing, scylla) in this game.

Still waiting for a goth loli nox skin.

Tera became a successful game because of elin.

Really? The reason most people play elins in that game is because two of the classes you can play are restricted to them. (Ninja and Reaper) The two classes that are arguably the most op in the game.

Well Endag Senpai it's becasue the legal age of consent in America is 18 and since anime typically sexualizes its characters it is kind of a conflict of interest.

The general population of America is not exposed to anime willingly. Its only those who know about it that care. And even in that population of Americans not all care for lolis. Its a specific target population that is very small. Most gamers are not part of this group.

Also yea i hate elins with a fucking passion but the classes are too strong to overlook because of race if you want to seriously play. I only play my ninja whem i know the ms potato wont walk in on me. I feel unclean.

Elin is not called the master race in TERA for no reason.

Yeah, which is why I'm bringing up the moe art style concept. It's not supposed to be like kTERA. It's not sexualising its characters.

You need it, not I, or anyone else. This game is based off of mythological deities and creatures, not a cartoon. The graphics may not be hyper-realistic, but they sure do not have the graphics of an anime style. As mentioned before, it was raise quite a bit of controversy, and the closest thing you're going to get is the kawaii skins. Not to mention - Scylla may take on the appearance of a little girl, but she's defined as a terrible monster capable of destroying fleets of ships singlehandedly, so using that as the basis of your argument is flawed.

Look, loli is just a loli. They are not necessarily sexualised,especially moe characters. Lolicon is a different thing.
Kagura in Gintama is a loli. Is she sexualised in the anime? No.

Non non biyori, kiniro mosaic are full of loli characters. Are they sexualised in the anime? No. They are perfectly fine PG13 Animes.

Satori Komeiji is also a perfect example. Is she sexualised in the original source, official game - Touhou 11: Subterranean Animism? Of coz not.

I'm not the one who mentioned scylla. She is imo irrelevant to the topic here.

Still, I see no feasible reason to add these line of skins into the game. You are the only person who has mentioned this, and quite frankly, I didn't even know this existed prior to this post, and I doubt the majority of Smite players even know what a "loli" is.

My point being - it's an unpopular suggestion. Whether there is sexualisation of children in these cartoons or not, there is association with it, thus, deeming the plausibility of such content to be introduced into the game, void.

Akiteck

07-10-2016, 10:00 AM

in these cartoons or not

Wow.

there is association with it ... If we switch sides for a moment, that's like literally saying oh you Americans made cartoon child porn (eg: League of legends/ben 10. Ya i saw them. It's creepy) so deeming the plausibility of such cartoon style skin to be introduced in the japanese game, void.

Anime is pretty much the Japanese's version of a cartoon. Is it better than western cartoons? Debatable. I think it is, but that's just me. Also, I'm pretty sure Hi-REZ has used the Japanese art style in some of their skins as well. They don't have to make skins about lolis to portray the art style.

Child pornography is illegal in the United States. And I doubt HiRez or any company would gamble on the slim chance there would not be a lawsuit on such an event just to appease a certain crowd. Use World of Warcraft in China / Japan and how the game changes and how it's portrayed. I'm not entirely aware of the Japanese laws regarding the topic I stated above, but I know they don't fly in the United States for any reason.

I don't have an issue with anime, or people who enjoy it, if you find it entertaining, then that's fine, but going as far to sexualize characters, much less children is too much for my taste.

Actually, forget about loli. My main point is to make use of moe/chibi art style which can be applied to adult and male characters as well.

Nice thread xD
I like loli/moe characters too and no, loli fan doesnt equal pedophil(idk how should I write it). When you watch movie with kids you are also pedophil? Thats just opinion of people who are prejudiced.

You must see the difference between real world and a game/anime. Thats work the same how works playing for example in GTA V, killing people in game doesnt equal killing people in real...

Anime in my opinion is much better than movies/cartoons because its much more original and you cant show guy who with one punch destroy everything(yea I write about One Punch Man ;p) and cartoons have just to awful graphics to watch.

But if you ask me about smite and adding loli char/skin then not. Sorry but bastet skin(Japanese like) is horrible. I dont really want see any other smite skin based on Japanese art because only true asian artist can do this well also its just not match to MOBA game like smite.

No. I mean there are original anime, but a lot of them are kinda copy and paste when it comes to plot. Same with cartoons. I agree that anime is better, but it's certainly not because they have original plots.
